Andrew Gwynne (Denton and Reddish) (Lab)
Given that the interim Greater Manchester mayor is an equal partner on the Greater Manchester combined authority, will the Secretary of State outline what will be in his cities and devolution Bill, and whether that will place the newly elected mayor of Greater Manchester above the combined authority? What powers will the mayor have that the combined authority currently has as its own?
Sajid Javid
The mayor will become the chair of the combined authority. I hope that helps to answer the hon. Gentleman’s question.
